This case is different to bog-standard capacitor-resistor circuits in that one resistor is also in parallel with the capacitor, which I'm unable to handle. How does that affect the charging of the capacitor over time?

At least to me, it seems likely that a tiny bit of redrawing makes the circuit more recognizable:

If we ignore the capacitor for a moment, and look only at the resistors, it's now pretty obvious: a textbook example of a simple voltage divider.
